Haxa

Changelog

New features, improvements, and fixes across the Haxa platform.

21 July 2026

  • New

    Combo deals in the POS: bundle several items at one fixed price — for example a burger, side, and drink. The price is split across the items automatically so receipts and reports stay accurate.

  • New

    Group bookings now keep an activity log. A History timeline on each group's detail page shows who changed what and when, so you can trace how a group evolved.

  • New

    Happy hour pricing: set discounted prices for specific hours and days, and the POS applies them automatically while the schedule is active — no manual price changes at the bar.

  • New

    Make POS products easier to spot: pick a color for each item from a curated palette and add badges, so staff find frequently used items faster on a busy screen.

  • New

    More flexible menus in the POS: organize items into sub-categories, and share one menu across several outlets — like a lobby bar and restaurant — so a change in one place applies everywhere.

  • New

    Control which orders each kitchen or bar printer prints. For example, keep the bar printer quiet for orders staff enter at the counter while still printing tickets for guest QR orders.

  • Fixed

    Organization administrators can now sign in to a POS tablet with their PIN without needing a separate POS role assigned first.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where visitors arriving at the booking engine from ad campaigns could lose their campaign tracking along the way. Bookings from your ads now attribute correctly in your analytics.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where a POS iPad could ask to be paired again after the app was fully closed. Tablets now stay paired; staff just sign back in with their PIN.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where price changes made in your property management system did not carry over to linked POS products. POS prices now stay in step with your PMS automatically.

  • Fixed

    Guest QR self-service orders are now always priced from your current menu, so the amount charged reliably matches what the menu says.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where a check brought to zero by voiding every line could not be closed. The POS now offers Close Check so these checks no longer linger as open.

19 July 2026

  • New

    Campsite guests can now extend their stay themselves from the QR self-service flow, which also received a round of polish for a smoother experience.

  • Improved

    Setting up Statistics Iceland (Hagstofa) reporting is simpler: Haxa now files on your behalf, so you only enter your property's auðkenni — no separate filing credentials to manage.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where some POS settings changes — such as campsite zone capacity — appeared not to save and only took effect after a delay. Changes now apply immediately everywhere.

18 July 2026

  • Fixed

    Fixed cases where reservations arriving from booking channels in another currency could show an incorrect converted amount after certain changes. You can also manually override the converted amount on a reservation when needed.

17 July 2026

  • Improved

    POS receipts now include all the fields required by Icelandic regulation 505/2013, including a sequential receipt number and your property's legal identity. Receipt labels are customizable, and VAT classes can be aligned with your property management system.

15 July 2026

  • New

    The POS print Job Log now shows a preview of each print job, so you can see exactly what a ticket or receipt looked like when troubleshooting printing.

  • New

    File your monthly accommodation report (gistiskýrsla) to Statistics Iceland directly from Haxa. The admin panel helps you reconcile guest nationalities first, and filing is held until no guest is left with an unknown nationality — so submissions are accepted the first time.

  • Improved

    The POS order screen is clearer once a check is fully paid: the Close Check button no longer appears when there is nothing left to do, so staff are not left guessing.

13 July 2026

  • New

    New Company Production report shows how much business each corporate account brings you. You can also filter the Revenue, Channel Mix, and Segments reports by company.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where POS charges posted to hotel folios could carry the wrong service category, which could cause them to be missed or misfiled in accounting exports.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where editing the guest count on a group booking could set the room rate to zero. Also fixed price repair not working on groups that originated in the PMS.

12 July 2026

  • New

    Campsite operations console: a Tonight board showing who is on site, an occupancy calendar, and a physical-count reconciliation tool so the numbers in Haxa match what is actually on the ground.

  • New

    Discounts arrive in the POS: define your own discount rules, set per-employee limits for discounts, voids, comps, and refunds, and require manager approval beyond those limits. This release also brings a single streamlined payment screen, printing a guest bill before payment, and a full Icelandic translation.

10 July 2026

  • Improved

    The Tailored Offers list now updates live and flags offers that need your attention — unread guest replies, new accepts or declines, payments awaiting confirmation, and offers about to expire — and the offer's creator gets an email when a guest replies or responds. The builder also autofills accurate rate-plan prices and adds city tax per night automatically.

  • Improved

    Restaurant and bar charges billed to a hotel folio now carry the correct revenue category into your PMS, so they land in the right account in your accounting exports.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where the public link for a tailored offer could lead guests to a page-not-found error instead of the offer page.

8 July 2026

  • New

    The cash drawer now opens automatically when a cash payment is taken on the POS, and staff with permission can open it manually when needed.

  • New

    Old open checks are now easy to spot and clean up: the POS Sales page lists checks that have been open too long, and the tablet shows an age badge on checks left open from previous days.

  • Improved

    Kitchen display tickets and printed kitchen slips now show the server's name along with the real order number and cover count, so the kitchen always knows whose order it is.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue in the booking engine where certain bookings could be charged an incorrect amount at checkout. Totals are now verified before payment is taken.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where reservation amounts imported from booking channels could occasionally be converted to the wrong currency amount. Extra safeguards now catch implausible amounts before they reach a reservation.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where a group booking's price with breakfast included could come out differently when modifying the booking than when it was first created.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where two checks could appear with the same check number on the POS tablet's tab strip.

  • Fixed

    Fixed two POS printing issues: special characters such as Icelandic letters no longer print as question marks on receipts, and a printer now correctly shows as offline when its print bridge is disconnected.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where restaurant and bar charges billed to a hotel folio could fail to reach the PMS. These charges now post reliably, and a proper invoice with customer details is issued when the folio is closed.

7 July 2026

  • New

    Statistics Iceland reporting: Haxa can now compile and submit your monthly accommodation report (gistiskýrsla) to Statistics Iceland for you, saving the manual monthly filing.

  • Improved

    The Occupancy report now includes a daily breakdown table, a working room-type filter, and richer columns, and occupancy % can be shown on a housed basis — with a tooltip explaining how upgrades can push sold occupancy above 100%. The Financial Position report's date range now actually filters to the arrival window you pick.

  • Fixed

    Fixed several reporting issues: the room-type filter now applies consistently across every report, the General Manager report is back in the sidebar menu, and non-functional toggles were removed from the Occupancy report and six other reports.

5 July 2026

  • Improved

    Group booking date changes now complete even when the new dates are overbooked, instead of failing partway through.

  • Improved

    Tailored Offers now have their own section in the admin panel navigation, and the offer builder suggests live rates from your PMS and adapts pricing to the number of nights.

  • Fixed

    Fixed several pricing and payment issues in Tailored Offers: city tax now flows correctly into the total the guest pays, held offers no longer misprice, and an offer can no longer be paid twice when both card and bank transfer are in play.

4 July 2026

  • New

    Tailored Offers grew a full authoring toolkit: a richer builder with content blocks, image uploads, cancellation terms, and a reusable block library, plus offer templates — save any offer as a template, start from Haxa's starter templates, or duplicate an existing offer. Offers also gained flexible payment terms (card, bank transfer, or deposit), refunds, per-offer analytics, and a new signature theme for the guest-facing page.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where website analytics could lose track of a visitor when they moved from your hotel website into the booking engine, so cross-site conversion tracking is now more accurate.

2 July 2026

  • New

    Tailored Offers: build a personalized offer in the admin panel and send guests a private link where they can review, accept, and pay online. Accepted offers convert into real reservations automatically, with inventory held while the guest decides, and reminders sent before the offer expires.

  • Improved

    When a group booking date change can't go through, the admin panel now shows the actual reason from your PMS instead of a generic error, and checks availability night by night before attempting the change.

30 June 2026

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where the price entered for a group booking could come out higher than intended once city tax was added — the price you type is now treated as the final, tax-inclusive amount. Group charges also now appear under the correct categories on the folio.

27 June 2026

  • New

    Campsite QR checkout can now ask guests for their vehicle license plate. You choose per outlet whether it's off, optional, or required.

  • Fixed

    Group bookings now show the correct nightly rate for each room, based on that room's own rate plan rather than a shared one.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where accounts with a single property could get stuck on "Select a property" when opening Reports. Reports now open directly on your property.

25 June 2026

  • New

    Campsite guests can now add electricity to their stay during QR self-checkout. You set how many power sockets each zone has, so electricity can never be oversold.

  • Improved

    Group bookings: select several rooms at once and set a price for all of them in one step, with the price treated as tax-inclusive.

  • Fixed

    The Communications section in the admin panel is now visible to organization admins. Previously it was hidden from them.

24 June 2026

  • New

    Guests can now pay with Apple Pay when booking online, on all supported payment providers.

18 June 2026

  • New

    The kitchen display now has a completed-orders view, and finished tickets can be recalled — so an order bumped by mistake is never lost.

  • Improved

    Campsite QR checkout is friendlier for guests: zone names can be translated into the guest's language, the whole page follows that language, and guests can pick one to five units in one go. You can also control which items are required at checkout and how children are handled.

  • Improved

    The bill-to-company picker in the POS is now searchable. Previously it was a single long dropdown that was hard to use with many companies.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where editing products in the POS catalog could silently break campsite QR sales.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where kitchen tickets printed directly from the tablet could fail to reach the printer.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where the group name was missing from group folios exported to your accounting system. The group name now appears on those entries, making them easier to reconcile.

  • Fixed

    Kitchen display tickets now show the real item name and quantity. Previously some tickets showed a blank line where the item should be.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where a POS charge could fail to reach the guest's hotel folio when the card payment completed before the order was sent to the kitchen.

17 June 2026

  • New

    Gift cards can now be bought and paid for online, and they activate automatically as soon as payment completes. A shareable purchase link makes it easy to point guests to your gift-card page.

  • New

    Guest emails can now include a secure personal link that takes each guest straight into their guest portal — no login or password needed.

  • New

    Kitchen tickets can now print directly to a networked receipt printer from the POS tablet — no extra hardware or software needed. For each kitchen station you choose whether orders go to the screen, the printer, or both, and pick which tablet drives the printer. Test print now works too, and the setup screens give clearer guidance.

  • Improved

    Reports got sturdier: the Lead Time report no longer times out on large date ranges, cancelled bookings are excluded where they shouldn't count, and the Channel Mix report has a clearer layout.

  • Improved

    Tapping Send in the POS now reliably delivers the order to the kitchen on every outlet type, with sensible default routing when no custom routing is set up.

  • Improved

    Property selection in the admin panel is simpler: the switcher at the top of the screen now drives every page, replacing the separate property selectors that were scattered across individual screens.

  • Fixed

    Tidied up the bookings and folios list views in the admin panel: wide tables no longer spill outside the page, and action buttons stay in view while you scroll.

  • Fixed

    Fixed the message scheduling page in Communications, which wasn't loading or saving its settings.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where guest emails could fail to send when the guest's profile had no email address on file. The Outbox also now shows the recipient and the email content, instead of "Unknown Guest".

  • Fixed

    Fixed outlet-wide QR codes for campsite self-checkout: saving works again, "Outlet-wide" is preselected where it makes sense, and outlet-wide codes now show up in the list so they can be managed. Creating a new QR code also got a roomier layout.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where POS charges billed to a hotel folio failed to appear in the PMS. There is also a new setting to turn folio posting on or off per outlet.

  • Fixed

    Fixed the product setup screen where the list of PMS services to link a product to was always empty.

16 June 2026

  • New

    Housekeeping staff can now log in with a code sent by text message, then re-enter with a quick PIN on the same device — no passwords to remember.

  • New

    Printer support arrives in the POS: kitchen orders can now print as physical tickets on receipt printers, so kitchens without a screen get their orders on paper.

15 June 2026

  • New

    A new Reports section for the POS: browse every check in detail, export to CSV, and see sales analytics covering revenue, busiest times of day, payment mix, and results per space. QR menus get their own analytics too — scans per day and month, how many turn into orders, and the revenue they bring in.

  • New

    The QR guest menu now carries your own branding, and new layout options let you choose anything from a compact list to a photo-rich menu. You can also offer accompaniments with a limit — for example, a set number of glasses served with a bottle.

  • New

    Guests can now order and pay from their own phone by scanning a QR code at the table, room, or campsite pitch. Orders can be paid by card on the spot or charged to the room, item availability is respected automatically, and incoming orders appear on a live staff board in the POS. QR codes can be generated in bulk from the admin panel, including ready-to-print stickers.

  • Improved

    Invoices exported to your accounting system for group folios now include the group name, making them easier to match to the right booking.

  • Improved

    Housekeeping supervisors can now pause and resume tasks, assign rooms manually, and set priorities directly. A daily analytics snapshot gives a clearer view of team performance, and signing an attendant out now ends their session on the device immediately. Also fixed an error that could block starting a shift.

14 June 2026

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue on the POS tablet where sent or held checks could disappear from view. Closed checks can now be searched from the tablet as well.

11 June 2026

  • New

    A new General Manager report shows nightly revenue with accommodation and food & beverage split out, plus net ADR and RevPAR — matching the figures you're used to seeing in your PMS.

  • New

    Split payments on the POS: a check can now be paid by specific items, split into equal parts, or by a custom amount. Items can be tagged to individual seats so orders and payments stay organized around the table, and dine-in orders now apply the correct VAT rate.

  • Improved

    New landing pages for the POS and Staff sections give a quick overview and faster access to their tools. Page titles are now consistent across the admin panel, your list and view preferences are remembered between visits, and several pop-up dialogs were replaced with smoother inline panels.

  • Improved

    POS card terminals can now use their own merchant account and credentials, keeping restaurant and bar payments separate from booking payments in your payment provider.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where a POS tablet could get locked out during pairing if the connection dropped at the wrong moment, forcing the device to be paired again from scratch.

10 June 2026

  • Improved

    A refreshed admin panel: new sidebar navigation, a command palette to jump anywhere with a keystroke, an always-visible property switcher, and a live Today pulse. Destructive actions now confirm inline instead of in pop-ups, and the Reports, Housekeeping, POS, and Staff sections share consistent loading states, theming, and improved accessibility.

  • Improved

    Campsite self-service checkout now confirms the purchase immediately after payment instead of waiting on a background notification. Also fixed a broken confirmation link in the purchase email.

  • Improved

    Invoices exported to your accounting system now include the Travia voucher number for vouchered bookings, making reconciliation easier.

9 June 2026

  • New

    The POS can now forecast breakfast covers per property, counting both guests with breakfast included in their rate and those who added it on — so the kitchen knows what to expect each morning.

  • Improved

    The booking engine now supports Google Consent Mode v2: the analytics tag loads for every visitor while data storage stays gated on their consent choice, giving hotels better measurement without compromising visitor privacy.

  • Improved

    A usability pass on the POS for iPads and tablets: larger touch targets and better readability throughout, so busy service goes faster with fewer mis-taps.

  • Fixed

    Fixed issues in the campsite self-service payment step: payments in Icelandic krónur could be charged an incorrect amount, and the card form could fail to load for some guests.

8 June 2026

  • Improved

    The Monthly YoY and Monthly Statistics reports now include a pacing column showing where last year stood at this same point in time, so comparisons account for bookings that are still to come.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where the campsite self-service flow could fail to load for group purchases. Payment errors now show a clearer message instead of a generic failure.

  • Fixed

    Fixed the rooming-list PDF for group bookings: the layout no longer breaks, and stray characters no longer appear in the export.

5 June 2026

  • New

    When a property moves to a new PMS, Reports can now link its history across the migration — so year-over-year comparisons include the data from before the switch.

  • New

    POS card payments now go straight to the connected card terminal: start the payment from the check and the terminal handles the rest, with safeguards to ensure a card is never charged twice.

  • Improved

    Campsite self-service share links are now much shorter and easier to hand out, staff can refund campsite sales, and new scan analytics show how often the QR codes are actually used.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where bookings synced from Godo could fail to link to the correct room, so room assignments now come through accurately.

4 June 2026

  • Improved

    Booking engine analytics events now include the currency of each transaction and integrate natively with Google Tag Manager, making conversion tracking and revenue reporting more reliable.

  • Improved

    Connecting a Godo property now imports your existing bookings reliably from end to end, so your reservation history is complete from day one.

  • Fixed

    Fixed issues where reservation amounts converted from a channel's currency could come out wrong for some OTA bookings, including bookings that carry city tax.

3 June 2026

  • New

    Group bookings can now overbook a room category when your PMS allows it, using Apaleo's allowed-overbooking limits — so you can accept a group even when a category is technically full.

  • Improved

    Revenue figures in Reports are now calculated from reservation totals, so the numbers match what guests are actually charged.

  • Fixed

    Fixed Google Tag Manager support in the booking engine — hotels using their own GTM container now see their tags fire correctly.

2 June 2026

  • New

    You can now record guest nationality on group bookings — both when creating a booking and when editing all guests at once — with Iceland pinned to the top of the country list. The campsite self-service flow also gained a full country picker.

  • Improved

    A better mobile experience in the booking engine: guests pick dates with a swipeable calendar instead of pop-ups, and room photos open in a rebuilt image viewer.

  • Improved

    Managing POS menus is easier: add products to a menu from a quick side panel, and the products list now shows which menus each product belongs to and can filter by menu.

  • Improved

    The room types page now has sortable and filterable columns, and room types are created and edited in side drawers without leaving the list.

  • Fixed

    Fixed two campsite self-service issues: the page could freeze and stop scrolling on some phones, and the QR discount was not always reflected in the amount charged.

  • Fixed

    Fixed POS tablet ordering issues: the check panel could be clipped off-screen, and adding items to an order could fail.

31 May 2026

  • Improved

    Choosing a room is easier in the booking engine: room types are compared by what sets them apart first, and guests can switch between gallery and list views.

30 May 2026

  • Improved

    When a closed folio is reopened in your PMS, a matching credit invoice is now created automatically in the accounting system. You can also manually re-send a single folio when it needs a fresh sync.

  • Improved

    The booking engine's first step got a visual refresh: your branding appears immediately without a flash of default styling, room cards show richer details, and you can choose which room-type details are displayed.

29 May 2026

  • New

    Upload your property's logo and custom brand fonts in the Branding editor — both now appear throughout the booking engine, so it looks like your brand, not ours.

  • Improved

    The booking engine's date picker got a polish, results refresh automatically when you change dates, and you can click the step indicator to jump back to an earlier step.

  • Improved

    The folios list in the admin panel now includes Date and Total columns for quicker scanning.

  • Improved

    You can now set the number of adults for each room directly on its row in a group booking, and the occupancy carries through to the reservation.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where an updated favicon or page details could take up to an hour to appear on the booking engine.

28 May 2026

  • Improved

    The group bookings list now shows check-in and check-out columns, plus room and guest totals for each booking.

  • Improved

    The Today dashboard now shows guest counts and tells you how recently your data was synced from the PMS, so you know how fresh the numbers are.

27 May 2026

  • Fixed

    City tax is now shown during booking and included correctly in the total the booking engine charges.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where charges that had been moved to another folio could still be billed from the original one, leading to incorrect invoices.

  • Fixed

    Bookings made through the booking engine now appear under their own channel in reports instead of being grouped with Direct bookings.

26 May 2026

  • New

    Campsite guests can now scan a QR code and pay for their stay directly from their phone — no queue at reception. Payment happens online and the sale shows up for your staff in the POS.

  • New

    Payment receipts are now available for card terminal charges — download an A4 PDF or print a compact receipt on a thermal printer.

  • New

    The POS now has a product catalog separate from menus: define each product once, then build menus from the catalog for each outlet.

  • Improved

    The housekeeping board's room grid now shows a status icon on each room tile, so you can read the state of a whole floor at a glance.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where invoices could show the wrong guest name for room charges that had been moved between folios.

  • Fixed

    Fixed the order screen not loading on paired POS tablets, and staff who sign in with a PIN can now clock in and out of their shift on the tablet.

25 May 2026

  • New

    Campsite support in the POS: set up campsite outlets with zones and QR codes, manage guest groups, and get dedicated campsite reports including a tax export.

24 May 2026

  • New

    Admins can now review an activity log in the admin panel showing who did what and when — useful for audits and for tracing how a change happened.

  • New

    Restaurant and bar charges can now be posted straight to a guest's room: link POS products to your PMS services, and orders charged to a room appear on the guest's folio after a quick identity check at the table.

  • Improved

    POS management screens now live in the admin panel alongside everything else you manage, while the POS app itself is reserved for tablets and staff devices.

23 May 2026

  • New

    A new sign-in system for the POS: tablets are paired to your property as trusted devices, staff sign in on the shared tablet with a personal PIN, and managers can also sign in from a regular browser. Kitchen displays use the same device pairing.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where the same charges could occasionally produce a duplicate invoice in the accounting system.

22 May 2026

  • New

    Properties that split revenue across several companies can now direct invoices from each connected integration to a different company code in the accounting system.

  • New

    You can now see everywhere your account is signed in and sign out any session remotely. Admins can do the same for their team's accounts.

  • Improved

    Guest emails sent from message templates now use your property's branding instead of a generic look.

  • Improved

    Invoices moved to a new Folios page under Overview, with date filters and a dedicated access permission so you can control who sees financial data.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where guests signing in to the guest app manually, without a link from their email, could not complete sign-in.

  • Fixed

    The booking engine's back button now reliably returns to the previous step, and guest portal links in confirmation emails open the correct property.

21 May 2026

  • New

    A new per-property setting lets you choose whether guests must enter their address when booking through the booking engine.

  • New

    A new Monthly Statistics report summarizes performance month by month. Report pages also have shareable links now, so you can send a colleague exactly the view you're looking at.

  • Improved

    The embeddable booking widget can now open results where you choose on your website, the room-selection step gained a search bar for changing dates, and several quirks when the booking engine runs inside another site were fixed.

  • Improved

    The group bookings screens have been redesigned: a clearer booking overview, a reworked rooms view, a searchable service picker, and better behavior on phones and tablets.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where cancelling a reservation in a group booking did not release its room back from the reserved block.

  • Fixed

    Fixed the in-house count on the Today dashboard so it matches the guest list and correctly includes guests checking out at midnight.

20 May 2026

  • New

    A new Today dashboard greets you when you open the admin panel: arrivals, departures, in-house guests, and items needing attention, all in one place and updating live throughout the day.

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where a group booking could show outdated arrival and departure dates after its reservations changed in the PMS.

19 May 2026

  • Improved

    Accounting invoices now show the guest name for each room's charges. Folios containing charges the system can't confidently categorize are held back with a clear error and a re-sync option, instead of producing incomplete invoices.

  • Improved

    Group bookings now support per-line service pricing and dates, and can be edited after creation — adjust services, prices, and dates without starting over.

  • Improved

    You can now grant or remove organization admin rights directly from the Manage Roles dialog on the People page.

  • Improved

    All report pages now share one consistent date picker that handles both single days and date ranges.

18 May 2026

  • Improved

    Reports are easier to get around: pin a favorite property with the star icon and it opens by default, and every report page now includes a short explainer card describing what the numbers mean and where they come from.

16 May 2026

  • Fixed

    Fixed an issue where adding guests in bulk to a group booking could fail when rooms were identified by their PMS reservation numbers.

15 May 2026

  • New

    Bookings from online travel agencies can now have their charges routed automatically to a dedicated customer account for that channel, keeping OTA billing separate and tidy without any manual folio work.

  • Improved

    DK invoice numbers are now shown in Haxa, so you can match a folio to its invoice in your accounting system at a glance. Closed folios also sync to DK automatically the moment they close — no manual push needed.

13 May 2026

  • Improved

    The Reports filter bar was redesigned for faster navigation, and dates and numbers throughout reports now follow your local format.

11 May 2026

  • Improved

    The booking detail page now shows the booking's folios, and accounting actions are available right where you work. Booking list filters were also refreshed for quicker narrowing.

  • Improved

    The DK accounting integration got several refinements: map individual items to your own DK item codes, replace your DK access token at any time without reconnecting, and finer control over how payments, line descriptions, and VAT are sent to DK.

10 May 2026

  • New

    Accounting integration with DK: connect Haxa to your DK accounting system and have folio revenue and payments flow into your books automatically, without manual re-entry.

7 May 2026

  • New

    Guest emails can now be sent from your hotel's own domain instead of a generic address. Set it up per property, and use the built-in test button to confirm everything works before going live.

  • Improved

    Group booking emails can now be previewed before sending, with a confirmation step so nothing goes out by accident. The list also gained a From-date filter and a Failed status filter, failed groups no longer clutter the Active view, filtered results paginate correctly, and the page keeps itself up to date automatically.

6 May 2026

  • Improved

    Dates across the admin panel are now displayed in a single consistent format (day.month.year), so you no longer have to guess whether 05.06 means May or June.

  • Improved

    The group bookings list gained a status filter and pagination, hides empty groups, and defaults to a more useful sort order. Availability checks are more accurate, and you can set default guest counts per room type when building a group.

  • Improved

    You can now see and assign a specific room for each reservation on the group detail page. Adding rooms to a group offers a rate plan picker, and requests for more rooms than the property allows are rejected upfront with a clear message instead of failing later.

4 May 2026

  • New

    Send confirmation, cancellation, and rooming-list emails for group bookings directly from the group detail page — no more composing them by hand.

  • Improved

    Group bookings refinements: choose a rate plan per room row when creating a group, and company-restricted rate plans are handled correctly — including a clear warning when a group has no company attached. Cancelling a group now also releases its room blocks, and the list is sorted by arrival date with arrival and departure columns.

  • New
